As with any marketing, you want to get the biggest bang for your buck, so how much should you spend on your yard signs? There are a few factors that can affect your cost, read on to learn more.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"567\" class=\"wp-image-20001\" src=\"https:\/\/www.signs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Center-Yard-Sign-Mock-up-01-1.jpg\" alt=\"Yard sign price variables\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Single Sided vs. Double Sided<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Double sided signs are ideal for locations where traffic will see both sides coming and going. The design can be the same or different, but you\u2019ll get a lot more traction for a lot less price. Usually a double sided sign is about a third less than just getting two signs. Depending on what kind of sign you are using, you can even plan ahead and use the same sign for two different events. For example, if you\u2019re using an A-frame design and you\u2019ve got a shop with an upcoming sale, you can use one side for the current sale, then switch to the opposite side that you\u2019ve had printed for the next sale. Using a double sided sign saves money, space, and you\u2019re using less materials, so you\u2019re also being environmentally friendly!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Custom Shapes<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Having your sign custom cut will set you apart from the crowd, but also adds some additional cost. For example, if your sign is $10.00 initially and you want it custom cut, you may need to add up to $5.00. If you need a large amount of signs, that additional cost can add up quickly. If you\u2019re only ordering a few and the custom shape will be an asset to whatever you\u2019re doing, then go for it. When your budget is tight, consider using the regular 24\u201dx18\u201d size and make the shape of your graphics bold and noticeable. That way you\u2019ll have the effect of the shape without the additional cost.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Color: Should You Do More Than One?\u00a0<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Color signs definitely get noticed more than black and white, so play with your design and make it interesting using color. Some printing techniques, such as screen printing, cost a bit less initially but charge for each additional color. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.signs.com\/yard-signs\/\">Digitally printed signs<\/a>, while slightly more expensive, can print in full, brilliant colors without any extra cost. Color can play a big part in your signage, so be sure you use the right colors to really make your design pop. Not sure about color choice? Signs.com has done the research for you! Click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.signs.com\/blog\/signage-101-rgb-versus-cmyk\/\">here<\/a> to learn a little bit about color and signage.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Display Options: Frames, Wire Stakes, and Grommets<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Your display method will depend largely on location and needs. If you\u2019re running for office, you\u2019ll probably do a lot of wire stakes on your yard signs for lawns and roadways. If you need a sign in front of your shop or business, an A-Frame could be a good idea. Each of these methods have different costs involved, so be sure to take that into account when you\u2019re looking at budget. The least expensive option is wire stake, and prices go from there. There are usually different options as far as how heavy duty you want your stakes or frames, so consider longevity in your sign. If you\u2019ll be hanging your sign, paying for grommet installation ensures your sign isn\u2019t damaged when you hang it.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shipping<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Shipping is a normal cost associated with the sign ordering process, but with each additional sign comes additional weight. If you\u2019re ordering hundreds of signs for the upcoming election, you\u2019ll need to add in the cost of shipping. Some printing companies, like Signs.com, use free shipping as an added perk, so do your research. Shipping also affects timing when ordering and receiving your signs, so be sure you know the details before you order.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Production Time<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Need your signs in a hurry? You may want to make sure your printer can accommodate your timeline and if there are rush fees involved. Signs.com is well known for ultra quick printing services, so rest assured you can get what you need, when you need it. Usually you\u2019ll want your yard signs up days or weeks before your event or election, so take this time into account as well.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Minimum Order Quantities and Discounts<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Sometimes you can get a price break when you order larger quantities. If you need 18 signs but get a significant price break at 20, you\u2019ll want to know. Ask about discounts for quantities and plan accordingly. Can you get signs at wholesale? Sometimes, although this is generally reserved for sign sellers\/shops.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><br \/>When done correctly, yard signs are a great way to get your message out. Using these tips, you can get a sign that will set you up for success.
